Howdy Y'all.......

Before I get told 'they are still two different airlines' just hear me out....

I am flying EWR-IAD on 3DEC, and found it quite perplexing that there is a CO-Conn flight leaving EWR at 7:25p (CO 3398/UA4770) and then a UA-Express flight leaving EWR at 7:27p (CO7669/UA8023).

As I said, I know CO and UA are still two different airlines, and so on, however, would it make a little more sense to have these two flights spread out a little more? Even if one was 6:45, and the other 7:45 or even 7:30, they would offer different "options" for travelers.

Also, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to offer service on a larger aircraft basically offer the same 124 seats (74 on the Dash-8 and 50 on the E145)....


Just my humble little observation.......
